Aftyn Marchant and Joleen Pollat cross the finish line in the 200 meter dash. The girls placed sixth and seventh, qualifying them for the state meet.

The Sundance track and field team travelled to Sheridan this past weekend to partake in the 2A East Regional meet.

While some Bulldogs have pre-qualified in events for the state meet, this was the opportunity for their teammates to join them in Casper this coming weekend.

Joleen Pollat had an outstanding weekend in the shot put event, taking second place with a throw of 38-05.75 and setting a new school record. The previous record was set by Rigan McInerney, 37-11.50, at the state track meet last year.

Hunter Skeens also walked away the 2A Regional East champion in the 3200M with a time of 10:49.81.

The Bulldogs will travel to Casper for the state meet on Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week.
